In light of the mandate by many states to adopt the national Common Core Standards, many teachers are looking to find new instructional methods in order to best achieve the high expectations set by these standards. As we delved into the Common Core Standards we began to explore different ways we could set up and present our math curriculum in the classroom setting. Through trial and error we came up with the mini-lesson followed by independent activity format in which the teacher is able to conference with students individually as well as in small groups. The Math GNOMe and Common Core Four are a UPK through sixth grade program that provides a systematic way of setting up the Math Block in a classroom in which every aspect of the instruction and student activity are geared towards specific areas of the Common Core. The Math GNOMe provides a series of mini-lessons that relate directly to the Common Core Standards while the Common Core Four are four independent activities that students participate in on a consistent basis in order to work towards mastery and a deep understanding of the learning standards. By organizing our classrooms in this manner we are better able to meet the needs of our students while ensuring that we are teaching to the content and practice demanded by the Common Core standards. The students are well aware of the high expectations placed on them and work every day towards mastery of the specific skills expected at their grade-level. We have found dramatic increases in student academic achievement when presenting our math curriculum and the Common Core Standards in this manner. The amount of student learning taking place is astounding.
